About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

Moscato from Asti.

Grapes

100% Moscato.

Tasting profile

Delicate, aromatic, lightly sparkling and fresh. The broad, enveloping nose emphasizes the intense aroma of Moscato grapes, with subtle acacia and honey notes. Sweetness is balanced by pleasant freshness and fine effervescence.

Serving and pairing

Suitable as an aperitif or at the end of a meal with pastries, strawberries, ice cream and cakes. Cellar life is 2–3 years.

Label / history

Dulcis is presented in an exclusive nest-shaped bottle made by master glassmakers. Its curved form surrounds and protects the wine while evoking Moscato d’Asti’s fine perlage.
